Correct replacement are identified by the colour insert or the colour embossed in words on the base of the plug. Replacement fuse covers are available from your local electrical store. OPERATION Ice maker operation is completely automatic. Ice is formed by progressive refrigeration of a film of water which flows on a refrigerated inclined plate (Fig. When the ice film attains the re- 4 M Y N C GB quired thickness, a thermostat automatically releases the ice sheet which slides on to a cross-hatched network of low voltage wire (Fig. This network melts the ice, cutting the sheet into cubes. This continues until the ice cubes bin is completely filled. A thermostat then automatically stops the ice cubes production. When the level of the ice cubes in the bin decreases, because of melting or use, the thermostat will automatically re- start the appliance. The water formed by melting ice cubes accumulates in the bottom of the bin and is discharged through a drain hole. If the compressor works and the ice bin is empty, check that: − the water is turned on. − the thermostat is set according to the instructions given. If the ice cubes are too thick or too thin, check that: − the thermostat knobs are positioned according to instructions. − It is possible that a calcium deposit has formed on the refrigerated plate. To remove this deposit, clean the water system (as described in the “Maintenance” section of this booklet). If the calcium builds up too rapidly, install a water softener filter: if the water softener filter is already installed, it is necessary to replace or to regenerate it. If there is no water in the ice bin, check that: − the drain hose is well connected − the drain hose is not clogged or kinked. If the ice cubes are not transparent, check that: − the water is not too hard. If it is, install the water softener filter. If already installed, regenerate or replace it. If after the above checks, the unit is still not working properly, contact your dealer or Service. [. . . ] 3) Remove the plug or the drain hose (if provided) inside the bin (Fig. 4) Pour 1. 5 l of water mixed with 1⁄10 litre of vinegar or 4 tablespoonfuls of lemon juice or citric acid into the bin using the funnel provided (Fig. 5) Press the two switches (green and blue) and operate the appliance for 40 minutes approx. 6) Release the two switches (green and blue) and drain this water mixture into the liner by inverting the position of the funnel.
